What Conditions do you treat?

Dr Sadikovic treats a wide range of neurological and related conditions. She treats patients with stroke, migraines, dementia, Parkinson's, back and spine issues, MS, neuropathy and other neurological disorders. She focuses on complete diagnosis, comprehensive care, and preventive strategies.

 

Do you offer in-person and video visits?

Yes, Dr. Sadikovic offers both in-person and video visits. With the exception of Annual comprehensive exam which is best done in person (some neurological complaints can have initial evaluation via video) the rest of the appointments can be done via video. For the ultimate care experience, our Executive membership includes in-home visits.

 

Will labs & imaging be covered?

Yes, labs and imaging, medications and referrals will all be covered by insurance. Everything stays the same as if you are seeing a provider who is taking the insurance - the membership fee covers your routine, preventive care.

 

How does concierge-based membership care differ from a regular doctor, hospital, or an urgent care facility?

Direct Neurology is not an urgent care center - if you are experiencing a medical emergency, please call 911. Our membership model is focused on your comprehensive health and we do so with providing you access to routine preventive care. Unlike insurance-based clinics, we can take the time to understand all your health concerns, and make a comprehensive plan to address them, free from the limitations placed by corporate insurers.

 

The exam services we offer take a proactive approach to neurology and focus on neurological condition prevention, assessment, and management proactively rather then reacting to problems after they have occurred. We strive to keep you healthy through prevention rather then reacting to disease states.
